So my questions are:
is the athlon 64 worth it over a athlon xp?
are the board options ok?
I like corsair memory alot, anyone have any problems with it?
Is SATA harddrives important?
and the biggest question...Is PCI express better than AGP? i know you can dual video card pc's with pci express and SLI technology, but if i dont plan on doing that should i just stick with agp?

I got this to be valued at about 1000US from New Egg, and was planning on building it myself to save cost, but then I looked up this system on Cyberpowersystems.com and it was almost the exact same price...does that sound odd to anyone else?

Anyhow any comments or upgrades or better places to find deals would be appreciated advice
